2017 Map of Darby Buttes

About this map

Darby Buttes rise above the drainage networks of central Montana in this modern topographic survey. The landscape is defined by the carved paths of intermittent waterways like Sand Creek and the southern reaches of Santo Arroyo Cr, which cut through the high plains. This area, largely defined by the township and range divisions of t17n r37e and t16n r38e, maintains a sparse infrastructure typical of Garfield County's ranching and agricultural tracts. Overland travel is channeled along named routes such as Krikorian Rd and Long Branch Rd, providing essential access across the open terrain. The map's contour lines reveal the complex erosion patterns that have shaped Southerland Coulee, offering a precise record of the land's physical character in the twenty-first century.
